    As you said..
    That area/projection will remain the same on all bulbs(irrespective of brand or colour).The reflectors present in the headlight assembly reflects the light emitted from the bulb.. as the filaments of high beam & low beam lies one on top of the other..
    BUT when it comes to HID (ie,Single xenon) the normal beam & HID beam filaments/components lie side by side, hence the projection/area change drastically & the intensity of light is the best & is most efficient(200%)..

      Yup thanks for information brother,few question's now...


      1) As I said wanna change Stock bulb so please suggest some good brand with Color of light .. wattage & volts should be same 12v/35w...

      2) Is it possible to change the Red Tail light with Blue LED's?

      3) Is it possible to install LED's bulb in headlight of same Watt?


      Our Tail Light Has red color's led & when we press Brake It becomes Darker? or other bulb lit up?

      if there is two zone led's in tail light then i think i would like to change that Always ON Red LED to Blue one ... & when i press brake red should glow up

            You will keep seeing them until they are caught..
            maybe those lads are ready to shell out money every time they are caught..
            I suggest you better don't do that, so that atleast you can ride with peace of mind of not being caught for such stuffs...
            Anyway the choice is urs bro..

              Why they will catch us? i mean our Tail light will be Red without doubt but the one which is always on will be Blue ...


              Hope I am not confusing.

                  1. Philips or Osram white light Halogen of rating H4 12v 35W is better.(But I was not able to find one )
                  You can go for a relay & then go for a H4 12v 60/55W halogen.(white or normal).

                  2.Yes, you can put any colour LED in the Tail/Brake light.Forgetting that they are illegal or are legal..
                  But I believe that Safety is primary & looks is secondary.(I guess you would't like to be rear-ended ).
                  I feel that using extra or different colour LED give the bike a very cheap look.


                  3.Yes, you can put LED for headlight..All the best searching for it...

                  I guess the tail light assembly has 2 zones/LED bulbs..
                  Think twice before replacing the LED..

                          You get phillips HID..But you need to search for 35W..Costs around 2-2.5k..
                          Philips Lighting India - Xenon HID Standard - Philips

                          You will find a few Chinese/Japanese company HID with warranty..They are also quite good,costs 1.5-2k...
                          Do a complete market survey before you buy & get it fixed by a proper mechanic..
